More About this Product
Inspired by the paintings by Lowry & Valette in our collection The Hide Ranger has taken leather that evokes the textures of the artworks and created functional objects that LS Lowry and Adolph Valette could have used in their everyday life.
The Hide Ranger wanted to reflect the varied textures found within the paintings in the surface of the leather, and was lucky to find the perfect hide that someone had left over from a project that never was. After initially looking to the paintings and texture, she then found herself absorbed into the world of the artists and started thinking about products that the artists might use themselves. The stamped lettering is inspired by the wording on old multiple pocketed wallets where each compartment is named for its intended use.
The Hide Ranger leather goods are designed & handmade in Manchester from reclaimed & surplus leather.
